We started seeds about 5 days ago, but so far nothing. I am getting more than a little impatient. I'm also worried that my inability to keep my toddler away from the planters at all times may have harmed them.

Amber: Maybe you need to pick fast-sprouting seeds to help with the impatience factor. Do you like broccoli? It seems to be chugging along nicely. My cat, however, is the one who won't stop stepping on the seedlings.

Lisa: It's no fun for me otherwise. :) I'm a writer, not a photographer (or a photographer AND writer, like you!). And, thank you!
